Natural Stone Fixings
Natural Stone support systems allow the fast and easy installation of stone cladding walls and can accommodate all types of load-bearing substrates whether they are concrete walls, block work & masonry walls or steel structures.
The following points are taken into consideration when designing a fixing system for natural stone installation.
- Stone dimensions.
- Cavity structure: projection size and isolation.
- Application type: horizontal or vertical joint installation.
- Joint size.
- Structural wall backing.
- Height of façade.
- Relevant dynamic loads such as wind and seismic loads.
- Design criteria of the project.
HAZ Metal proposes and specially designs fixing systems for natural stone cladding according to individual project requirements.
